Hello Ryan, OK I tried the E/IP setting as you recommended, and the HMI did not take to it. I switched my HMI and PLC communication settings to Modbus Master and it connected right up. It also helps to insure I had the right IP address in the PLC. Fat fingers do it every time. Thanks for the ...

Hello Ryan, I am actually using a SEW DOP (Beheir? that is who actually makes it. SEW just brand labels it.) That would be great if I could use ETHERNET/IP. This was not ever an option before. I was under the impression that only PV800 could use the Ethernet/IP? I am currently using FW20. ---- ...

Hello Philip, They get this message when they try to open Studio. I fixed it on mine once before. I had to go into Factory Talk Admin Console and add my username and password as an Admin. We use a VM and I require all my users to rename their VM so I can see who it is on the license server.

All the passwords are stored in the PLC so if there is no connection to the PLC you cannot access that function anyway. I know I always ...
